Depreciation credit is a major factor in forecasting amortization. Depreciation is assumed to be 10% for Year 1 and to be 10% thereafter. As always, certain stipulations apply and you should consult your tax professional for details. Financial projections are provided as a guide only. Dyco makes no claims or warranty regarding recapture of investment actually realized.
